Somewhat relatedly, I sometimes find using fictional characters (or stereotypes) as anti-inspiration. For example, I may ask myself "what would Sheldon Cooper do?" and then make sure not to do that.
Reversed stupidity is not intelligence.
Not sure that's what the OP is doing. It's one thing to say "This is obviously stupid; I should do the opposite." It's different to say "This is obviously stupid; I shouldn't do it."
However, reverse Boring might be Interesting.
Sometimes I see Sheldon as a role model. If something is stupid, he'll tell you.
